Have. Want. Need.
We've been seeing colored stems for a while now. But it's an opportune time for a refresher. Geri Halliwell, here at her book signing in the UK, shows us how to pull it off successfully. The key is to keep the rest of your outfit monochrome, preferably dark. That way your legs aren't upstaged — and you don't look like Punky Brewster. It's an easy and inexpensive way to incorporate color into Read more
Based off of the show What NOT To Wear, I'm deeming this edition of How Would YOU Wear It? "How NOT To Wear Colored Tights." I'm all for colorful tights but Paris killed her beautiful Nanette Lepore dress by pairing it with tacky pink tights. Was she trying to match with the pink carpet? If I were Paris and standing next to my stylish sister (love the plaid and Chanel shoes, Nicky!), I would Read more
Colorful tights are nothing new. But you have to be pretty bold to wear them and Halloween doesn't count! Sure, Gossip Girl Blair Waldorf wears black and white tights all the time, but colored tights are a whole different ballgame. Take these French Connection purple tights, $15. They are the perfect way to liven up a moody Fall ensemble. I recommend pairing them with a heather grey dress. If Read more
Our New York Fashion Week kickoff began this morning with Steven Alan. For Fall, the designer showed another batch of covetable casual-cum-cool offerings pairing his signature modern classic style with a bold touch of Mexican and folk influence. Full red skirts were paired with riding jackets and fedora hats and structured striped wool vests with slightly flared pants, and there was even a cute Read more
Beyoncé Knowles went out in NYC last night to watch her husband Jay-Z's performance at Carnegie Hall. It was Beyoncé's first public appearance since giving birth to daughter Blue Ivy Carter exactly one month ago. She wore a tight, rust-colored dress from the Alice by Temperley line, paired with Christian Louboutin heels, bright blue nail polish, and a huge sparkling ring in the same hue as her Read more
I don't usually get very fancy with my yoga clothes. A fitted tank with a built-in sports bra is my usual go-to top. It keeps my girls covered and in place, and the fitted body stays put when I go upside down. But some days you ate too many cookies you just don't feel like wearing something tight. You could sport a loose shirt but it doesn't offer the most flattering look, and as soon as you Read more
ShopStylist Natural Born Styler showcases a deeper and richer color than brown – red-toned mahogany pieces. The structured scoopneck wool dress with leather skirt is classy and modest. Amp it up with a furry goat hair gilet, patent leather pumps, and studded leather clutch. Pull your hair back into a tight updo, wear minimal eye makeup, and a dark mahogany lip to channel the sophisticated, Read more
New Year's Eve may very well be your best excuse to get all dressed up, try something totally new, and make a major style statement — we consider it our duty to help you ring in the new year looking your most fabulous. To kick off our Countdown to NYE series, we're re-creating an outfit inspired by one of the ultimate '60s-era style icons, Edie Sedgwick. Edie had a ground-breaking aesthetic Read more
With a burst of brights, cheeky prints, and covetably sweet styling, Madewell's Spring 2012 has us daydreaming of warmer days ahead, when we might just throw on its adorable polka-dotted skirts (sans tights) and kelly green flats. It's in line with the stuff we've come to know and love from the label — lived-in denim, silky dresses, staple booties and wedges, and irresistible skimmer flats in Read more
I'm a Mizuno fan — the company's roster of running shoes has something for every serious runner (or any type of runner who's serious about getting the right gear). So I was happy to test out the Wave Rider 15 ($115), the newest model in a line of shoes that has proven to be one of Mizuno's most popular since it was introduced 15 years ago. I was a little wary about trying the Wave Riders, Read more
